更多显示Bangladesh has done remarkably well in improving agricultural productivity. Around seventy percent people in Bangladesh live in rural areas and over forty-seven percent of the country’s total labour force are engaged in agriculture. Agriculture occupies around three-quarters of Bangladesh’s land and supports the livelihoods of the majority of rural people. Hence, achieving economic growth and reducing poverty require policies and investments conducive to lasting transformational changes in rural areas including technological innovation in agriculture. The second national agriculture technology program (NATP II) aims to support the government’s strategic priorities in agriculture by increasing agriculture productivity and improving farmers’ access to markets. Small-scale farmers will benefit from stronger linkages with research, on-farm demonstrations of improved technologies, training and skills development, agricultural extension services, and co-funding productive assets.
